Notes
Nutrition values are an estimate. You can use any type of bread; just adjust the baking time as needed. The butter, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper can be adjusted to taste. For a deeper golden top, broil for the last 1 to 2 minutes and watch closely. To freeze, wrap the assembled, unbaked loaf tightly and freeze for up to 3 months, then bake from frozen at 350°F for about 15 to 20 minutes.
